Metro Adds New Galbraith Road Crosstown Route & More Improvements During Fall Service Changes

CINCINNATI -
As part of Phase III of the Reinventing Metro Plan, Metro is excited to introduce the new Rt. 61 Galbraith Road Crosstown Route, among several other service changes.

The new highly customer-demanded Galbraith Crosstown route will run seven days a week between Mt. Airy and Madeira, with service every 30 minutes on weekdays and 45 minutes on weekends. This route will efficiently connect residents to jobs, healthcare, shopping, and other essential resources, benefiting those along the route and providing seamless connections to other routes in Metro's network, expanding their travel options and making it easier to navigate the city.

The Reinventing Metro plan enhances our community's access to vital services, including jobs, education, healthcare, and entertainment. Phase III improvements further elevate service quality across the region, addressing specific community needs such as providing Sedamsville residents with access to a grocery store on the Rt. 77. These updates continue to boost the overall efficiency and accessibility of Metro's transportation network, helping the community connect with what matters most.
